Data Precision
–
set the number of digits for the data reported.

Decimal Places
Write
Set
n
to the number of decimal places to be
reported. For example, setting to F2 will
report 2 decimal places (ex. 10.35). F0 will
provide the integer value only. Valid values of
n
are 0-5.
Sampling Rate/Buffer Size
–
set these values to control the sample rate of the sensor. This setting
influences the output data and the rate at which the data is reported. The buffer size influences the report
rate and accuracy. A buffer size of 512 will have a report rate between 5-30Hz. The accuracy becomes
worse by a factor of two with a 512-buffer size versus 1024 (Figure 6).
